Happy April

I love April because it is my birthday month and it is Spring. I finished 2 projects in the last 2 months. I took a class with Melinda Bula in July 2011 at Sisters. It was a 2 days class called Zinnia. I was able to get almost done and finished it at home in August 2011. I don't believe in having UFO's but my Zinnia finally got finished with the thread play in March. It took me 2 weeks every day to get all the colors done. I wanted to get it finished to take to Sisters this year to show Melinda. I'm taking her 2 days class called Hibiscus in July. I love her classes and was unable to take her class in Houston in 2011. I was able to show her my Coneflower that I did and she loved it. I'm very pleased with my Zinnia. I used Sulky Rayon thread which made the flower power pop on it. Here are a few pictures of my Zinnia.
